A FARMER LOST A PIG WHILE TAKING IT TO THE BUTCHER!!! It started roaming the road so drivers called the police. The negligent farmer was tracked down and fined. The pig enjoyed freedom for a few hours only. Pity. As a Pole, I support freedom of everything and everybody. www.tvn24.pl/-1,1583610,0,1,zgubil-swinie--dostal-mandat,wiadomosc.html   |

Poland-Pig herd lowest in 40 years
Farming UK
2/6/09
POLAND - The pig herd in Poland has fallen to its lowest since 1970,
writes Michal Kolesnikow, analyst at the BGZ Bank. No recovery in
terms of numbers is expected before the end of this year although
prices and margins are improving.
According to the latest data from the Polish National Statistical
Office (GUS), in November 2008 the pig herd fell to its lowest level
since 1970. By the end of November, there were 14.2 million pigs in
Poland, 7.7 per cent down on July 2008 and 19.2 per cent down year-
on-year. Some 4.6 million pigs have disappeared since the last peak
of the 'pig cycle' in July 2006. The magnitude of the contraction is
comparable to the size of the whole pig herd in the UK.
The magnitude of the fall in numbers is, however, surprising.
Previous forecasts projected the herd to contract to 14.7 to 15.0
million head. The further fall in sow numbers is also surprising
because profitability of pig farming has increased considerably
since last summer due to diminishing feed prices and a strong
increase in slaughter pig prices.
The fall in sow numbers (6.4 per cent down on July) means that the
decreasing trend in herd size will now last longer, at least until
July 2009. The next survey at the end of March 2009 may see as few
as 13.5 to 13.7 million pigs. As far as pigs weighing over 50 kg
intended for slaughter are concerned, their number will contract in
March and then seasonally increase in July. Not until November 2009
is some rebound in the underlying trend expected.
As a result, pig meat production in Poland this year may be eight to
ten per cent down on the previous year which in turn already had
been ten per cent down on 2007. Many abattoirs will have enormous
problems sourcing pigs. Meat processors will also face great
problems. Due to recent strong depreciation of the Polish zloty
against the Euro, imported raw meat from Denmark, Germany or
Netherlands has become very expensive. The processors will have
limited capability to pass through the cost increases as consumer
confidence is dwindling and retailers are looking to keep the prices
as low as possible.. That will squeeze already insignificant margins
in the meat industry. A record high number of bankruptcies is
likely.
On the other hand the pig producers' situation will improve
considerably. Although some increase in feed prices is expected,
farm-gate prices of slaughter pigs will hit record high levels.
Through most of the year prices will fluctuate at around 25 to 30
per cent above the five-year average price and in the third quarter
may for the first time in history exceed 5 zloty (PLN) per kilogram
liveweight.

Why don't the Polish, like beef. I would take a good steak over any pork chop, anytime.
But I do like fish best. When I am in Poland, I find good beef, hard to find, in most places.

Mike Pork is tradition in Poland. Beef is .... is.... hm..... a bit ..... too red. When I see it I always think it was supplemented with colouring and additives. And there is mad cow disease. |

You can get many things from pork also. Beef is only good, when done correct.

I could understand having cows for milk only. We have dairy farmers in our family also. But, at the end of their life cycle, the cows are usually processed for meat. |

But, at the end of their life cycle, the cows are usually processed for meat. There is little beef industry and beef is available in Poland but after I read about American methods of beef production, I realised we better stick to our pigs which are a real staple here ;D ;D ;D Once I tried to make a steak from Polish beef but gave it to my cats in the end. ;D It was inedible. |
